Hiding from her past, veterinarian Lyris Jennings decides a fresh start at Whispering Winds Ranch will be a two for one. She can heal animals while healing her wounded heart, too. Feeling a spark for her new boss wasn't supposed to be part of the deal.

Widower Ray Kincaid has to focus on two things: his spirited horses and his even wilder daughter. Without a mother, he's all Maddy has, and she's a full-time job. He has neither the time, nor the desire to risk his heart again. So why does his new vet start to get under his skin?

When the past won't stay where it belongs and their bright future starts to dim, will Lyris and Ray fight for a chance at love? Or will they let it slip through their fingers, stolen by a madman's rage?

Gripping romantic suspense about the love they never saw coming and risking everything to save it.
